Chances

(album: Beware Of Shapeshifters - 2016)

I might not find my peace
Or maybe I didn't I'm blind to see
Take time with this one
Fears come fast can't dodge 'em, listen
Speak to the masses, but my reach little
I could never seem to grasp it
All this practice
All this work better work it's magic
Living the life that I dreamt of
And the cold nights with the bed bugs
And they might be times that I've eff'd up
Wrote rhymes saying, "Get up."
And I can't take back what I've cast on me
But I still keep at it like crack homie
With the raps homie
Never sit back with the blast on me
My power level over nine K
On a Friday, I'm in the time chamber
Swallowing rhymes like Lifesavers
You partying while I write the bangers
And I'm not giving out
If you listen you'll get it now
Work not finished I'm coming to gather my thoughts
Just give me a minute
This feeling is as real as it gets
So, how could I watch? How could I stop?
How could I turn the other way and pretend that I'm lost
Pretend that I'm a pawn and nobody's boss
I cut the strings they pulled
Feed off lives and now their full
Our spot been one above vacant, the taste
See the Devil couldn't contain my soul

All our chances
All our goodbyes in between our glasses
Time flies I ain't fast enough to catch
All our everything put into this basket

And that's just how it happened
And that's just how it happened
And that's just how it happened
And that's just how it

Creep like a phantom and do my best work
Can't love my chest hurt
Follow my trail and then all you see is stars and next you get dirt
Do you get it?
I'm leveling past the minimum
Stuck in a trance, get rid of them
I'm turning my chances into advances
Until I'm up and ahead of them
Can't stop me now I change often
This ride [?] wanna hang on to
Name caught the crowd, fate decided
Step behind the ropes and don't get divided
My motto, jot every thought that I can
Run outta space use the back of my hand
We fight with demons still [?] the days
I hope light shines through these skies
Everybody got their faces
Two or three between you and me
They all hiding in the shade
Just kicking it but ain't fooling
See I ain't stupid, fucking lowlife
Do better in low light
The grind never stops so hold tight
The whole night wide awake
Living out my dreams, can't see so they hibernate
It's okay though, double wings and that halo
Wanna grab that pay so
My third eye see through the relms
Those I love still wish you well
I still wish we could've seen eye-to-eye
I ride-or-died, guess you were ride it bye

All our chances
All our goodbyes in between our glasses
Time flies I ain't fast enough to catch
All our everything put into this basket

And that's just how it happened
And that's just how it happened
And that's just how it happened
And that's just how it
